    Spence vulnerable to uppercuts?

    I haven't watched it yet but I heard he showed this weakness. If this is true, is Zab too old to expose it with the "dynamite uppercut"?

      I think he's a little stiff, flat footed and doesn't move his head a lot so he's susceptible to walking into anything, not necessarily uppercuts.

        Like I said, I haven't seen the fight. Just the interpretation that uppercuts bother him. So you don't think it would be an issue with a lefty?

          He got hit with a few nice shots today, but that's to be expected, he's a come forward guy. He's going to get hit from time to time

              Thanks all! I can't wait to see it! Fury upsetting Wlad is the only one I have seen today! It pumped me up!

                he got hit twice with uppercuts, once he slowed down and started using better defense he got the guy out of there. I liked the adjustment he made in rounds 3-5 much better defense.

                he showed that he can make defensive adjustments something 90% of fighters can't make for some reason.

                  He got hit a bit in the 1st round, but he stood his ground on the 2nd

                  He needs another tough match next, then he will be ready for the big time

                    I think he is vulnerable to an overhand right.
